I wouldn't use the word problems, remember that Apple is in the business of selling them. If a gimmick sells them, so be it; Siri helped with S4 and Retina is helping with the iPad3.

I agree that Windows 8 tablets or slimbooks might give Apple a run for their money. Personally I prefer an ultra light laptop with touchscreen over a tablet. They're easier to hold (floor, thighs...) you can move the screen back and forth and I can use them for a lot of other things.

Notebook prices are dirt cheap now, for less than $600 you can get an amazing Win 7 laptop with 1 TB drive, 6 Gig Ram and so on so maybe they'll do something cool and cheap with Windows 8.
